SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
When the FAA issued the final rule,
‘‘Establishment of Organization
Designation Authorization Program’’ in
October 2005, we inadvertently omitted
two section references from paragraph
(b) of § 183.15. This paragraph provides
for the duration of certificates for Flight
Standards or Aircraft Certification
Service Designated Representatives. The
references omitted were to the sections
describing the privileges of pilot
examiners (§ 183.23) and technical
personnel examiners (§ 183.25). This
correction adds those two references to
§ 183.15(b).
Need for Correction
The omission of these two references
could cause confusion with regard to
the duration of the two referenced
delegations.

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and

ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: This final rule amends 14
CFR 1260.20(e), ‘‘Provisions,’’ and the
introductory paragraph to Exhibit E
(Commercial Space Centers Program
Grants/Cooperative Agreements
Intellectual Property) to clarify that the
‘‘Patent Rights’’ and ‘‘Rights in Data—
CSC Program’’ special conditions in
Exhibit E are to be used in all grants or
cooperative agreements awarded to
Commercial Space Centers (CSC) under
the Space Development and Commercial
Research (SDCR) Program instead of
(rather than in addition to) the general
conditions for Patent Rights (§ 1260.28)
and Rights in Data (§ 1260.30).
In addition, this final rule makes an
administrative change to correct a cross-
reference error in paragraph (e) of the
general condition entitled, ‘‘Patent
Rights,’’ § 1260.28.
DATES: Effective Date: May 18, 2006.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
The Grant Handbook at § 1260.20(e)
requires use of Exhibit E, Special
Conditions for Cooperative Agreements
between NASA and the Commercial
requires use of the general conditions
which include § 1260.28, Patent Rights,
and § 1260.30, Rights in Data. This
coverage may have the unintentional
consequence of requiring use of both the
Exhibit E special conditions and the
general conditions. In such case, the
PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\18MYR1.SGM
Exhibit E special conditions would take
precedence since they are structured as
supersede the general conditions.
However, to avoid any potential
misinterpretation or confusion, this
change clarifies that the special
conditions in Exhibit E replace the
general conditions for patent and data
rights.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
NASA certifies that this final rule will
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities
within the meaning of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.,
because the changes are merely
clarifying existing coverage in the Grant
Handbook.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does
not apply because this rule does not
impose any new recordkeeping or
information collection requirements, or
collection of information from offerors,
contractors, or members of the public
that require the approval of the Office of
Management and Budget under 44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.

operations. Entry of persons or vessels
into this temporary safety zone is
prohibited unless authorized by the

DATES: This safety zone is effective from

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulatory Information
We did not publish a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this
regulation. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the
Coast Guard finds that good cause exists
for not publishing an NPRM. The
precise location of this detonation
operation site, and the need for this
safety zone, was not determined until
less than 30 days before the range
Publishing an NPRM and delaying the
effective date would be contrary to the
public interest because the Air Force
operations would begin before the
rulemaking process was complete,
thereby jeopardizing the safety of people
and property unknowingly transiting or
remaining in the area.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3), the Coast
Guard finds that good cause exists for
making this rule effective less than 30
days after publication in the Federal
Register. The COTP finds this good
cause to be the immediate need for a
safety zone to allay the aforementioned
safety concerns surrounding the
detonation operations.
Background and Purpose
The Coast Guard expects that, every
Sunday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. from May
4, 2006 to July 30, 2006, the U.S. Air
Force will conduct range operations
within the Guam Captain of the Port
Zone. The Coast Guard has determined
that a temporary safety zone in the
waters of Tarague Basin bounded by a
circle with a 2077-yard radius in the
vicinity of Pati Point, Guam is necessary
to protect people and property from
hazards associated with the operation.

Discussion of Rule
This temporary safety zone will be
enforced every Sunday from 8 a.m. to 4
p.m. from May 4, 2006 to July 30, 2006.
It is located within the Guam Captain of
the Port Zone (See 33 CFR 3.70–15) and
covers all waters bounded by a circle
with a 2077-yard radius, centered at
13°35′35″ North Latitude and 144°56′29″
East Longitude (NAD 1983), from the
surface of the water to the ocean floor.
The general regulations governing
safety zones contained in 33 CFR 165.23
apply. Entry into, transit through, or
anchoring within this zone is prohibited
unless authorized by the Captain of the
Port or a designated representative
thereof. Any Coast Guard
commissioned, warrant, or petty officer,
and any other Captain of the Port
representative permitted by law, may
enforce the zone. The Captain of the
Port may waive any of the requirements
of this rule for any person, vessel, or
class of vessel upon finding that
application of the safety zone is
unnecessary or impractical for the
purpose of maritime safety.
Regulatory Evaluation
This rule is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under § 3(f) of
Executive Order 12866, Regulatory
Planning and Review, and does not
require an assessment of potential costs
and benefits under § 6(a)(3) of that
Order. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under that
Order.
The Coast Guard expects the
economic impact of this rule to be so
minimal that a full Regulatory
Evaluation is unnecessary. This
expectation is based on the short
durations of the zone and the limited
geographic area affected by it.
Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have considered
whether this rule will have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. The term
‘‘small entities’’ comprises small
businesses, not-for-profit organizations
that are independently owned and
operated and are not dominant in their
fields, and governmental jurisdictions
with populations of less than 50,000.
The Coast Guard certifies under 5
U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule will not have
a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities. We
expect that there will be little or no
impact to small entities due to the
narrowly tailored scope of this safety
zone.
